I had a really similar experience playing cyberpunk weirdly. Like, you think you're being clever by doing something that logically should save you based on the established rules of the world, then the writers decide to pull the rug out right at the end and say "nope, sorry we've got a thematic ending in mind and you have to die no matter what". Really left a sour taste in my mouth.
To be honest, I'm not even sure if I am criticizing it, in the same sense that i don't really have any criticisms of the colour beige...
It made no impression on me, it had no memorable characters or interesting ideas, I can't even remember the plot despite the fact that im sure i played through the whole thing. The only take away i had was a string of marvel level quips and an extremely thorough understanding that evil corporations are bad...
I was just, disappointed. Thats all. But my impressions are coloured by how much i wanted it to be good after playing falliut 4. Definitely do not let that influence your experience, if you loved it then i believe you 100%
I hope so, but I'm nervous. The Outer Worlds also seemed really promising at first but turned out to be so disappointingly bland. Fingers crossed though
Honestly its bizzare that the original phrase gets said so often. There aren't really that many scenarios in history where "hard times" didn't just lead to corrupt people making times harder.
There are certain people on the internet who have been conditioned to impulsively post any recognizable reference even if only tangentially related to a topic in hopes of getting some sort of response. It's the redditor syndrome
It's astonishing how pretty much everything distasteful in the new testament comes from Paul. If you took him out you'd lose 70% of the story but it would be so much more palatable as a religious text
In the original game? I played before the DLC
